Peer Advising and Family Network (PAFN)
1st year and transfer students can apply to be a PAFN advisee during the summer prior to their arrival at UVA. Advisees are paired with 2 upperclass advisors and form a small "family" with a few other advisees. These families are then grouped under the PAFN tri-chairs to form extended families that get together for various activities and events. For more information, please contact Jenna Zhang, Mel Li and/or Howard O.

This year's advisors represent the following majors:

Accounting, Anthropology & Foreign Affairs, Anthropology, Biology & Cognitive Science, Biochemistry, Biology, Biomedical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Commerce, Economics & Finance, Economics & Foreign Affairs, Economics & Music, Economics & Psychology, Economics, Environmental Science & Urban Environmental Planning, Finance & Accounting, Finance & Marketing, Human Biology (Pre-Med), Pre-Commerce, Pre-dental, Psychology & Education, Psychology, Sociology & Anthropology, Spanish & Pre-Med, System Engineering & Economics, Undecided.

Even if you are paired with an advisor who does not share your anticipated major, you will still have access to all PAFN advisors for any questions you may have.

The deadline to sign up to be an ’07-’08 PAFN advisee has passed. Please be on the lookout for executive board applications coming this fall and advisor applications coming next spring.
